| IT'S FOUR IN THE MORNING (History) I wrote this song in 1972 beginning at 4 AM one morning. Later that day I received a call from Billy Deaton (Faron's Manager), wanting to know if I had a Hit for Faron. I met Faron later that day at Mercury Records and sang him this song. He loved it, and so we went back into the Mercury Studio and recorded it just Me and my guitar. Faron took the recording and learned the song, then he recorded it a few days later. I was at the session and we both loved his version of it, but little did we realize that it was to become an across the board, number 1 HIT, and the biggest International, Top Selling record of his career. Faron was a great talent and did many of my songs, but more important, "HE WAS MY FRIEND and I MISS HIM". JERRY |

| IT'S FOUR IN THE MORNING It's four in the morning and once more the dawning Just woke up the wanting in me Wishin' I'd never met her, knowing if I'd forget her How much better off she would be The longer I hold on and the longer this goes on The harder that it's gonna be But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning Just woke up the wanting in me I never deserved her, God knows when I hurt her That's the last thing that I want to do She tries but she can't tell how she feels but I know Too well what she's going through If I love her so much I don't know why I can't do The right thing and just let her be But it's four in the morning and once more the dawning, Just woke up the wanting in me Last night I told her this time it's all over Making ten times I've told her goodbye Last night we broke up, this morning I woke up And for the tenth time, I'm changng my mind I saw more love in her eyes when I left her Than most foolish men will ever see And It's four in the morning and once more the dawning Just woke up the wanting in me (fade) It's four in the morning and once more the dawning Just woke up the wanting in me (Words & Music by JERRY CHESNUT) |
